Product Description
Swiss Army - Champion Plus
Amazon.com Product Description
From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army Knife a century ago comes the Champion Plus, a complete set of tools for campers, hikers, hunters, fishers, picnic enthusiasts, and people all trades--all neatly contained in a single implement. Measuring just 3-1/2 inches long, the Champion Plus is stylishly cased in the famous red Swiss Army body that's recognized around the world. More importantly, the pocket knife contains 30 stainless-steel tools appropriate for just about any occasion. The standard camping tools include a large blade, a small blade, a corkscrew, a can opener, a bottle opener, a small screwdriver, a large screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, scissors, tweezers, and a toothpick. And that's just the beginning, as the Champion Plus also offers a punch reamer, multipurpose hook, wood saw, fish scaler, and hook disgorger. In short, there's no better accessory for camping, hunting, and fishing trips. Should the basic tools not cut it, the Champion Plus steps up with a host of extras, including a metal file, metal saw, fine screwdriver, mini screwdriver, and chisel scraper. Add in such tools as a ruler, nail file, nail cleaner, magnifying glass, pressurized ball point pen, straight pen, sewing eye, and key ring and you're well equipped for everything from repairing holes in tents to reading the fine print on instructions. As with all Victorinox items, the Champion Plus is made to exacting standards, with 60-plus individual parts and 450 steps going into its construction. Victorinox attends to every detail, from selecting the finest materials to performing the final inspection. In addition, each individual tool has been hardened in a different way to stand up to its designated use. Such care is unmatched, and is why the Champ series is recognized by such international experts as the New York Museum of Modern Art and the State Museum of Applied Art in Munich, both of which have selected it for their "excellence in design" collections. Outfitted with a nylon handle and an aluminum housing, the Champion Plus carries a lifetime warranty.

About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and "inox," or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The original product dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor for versatility.

 Great product. Maybe a little overkill. November 26, 2008

This knife will do everything that you will ever need doing....plus many you've never even thought of. Quality is great. Only drawback is that its pretty big in size for just carrying around in your pocket. [Your girlfriend might mistakenly think that you're just glad to see her.] Nevertheless, if Crocodile Dundee would see it, even he would have to admit that "now this is a knoif"!!
Swiss Army Champion Plus Indeed! November 25, 2008
S. Lachaga (Rye, NY USA)
The Swiss Army Champion Plus is a winner without a doubt. With Victorinox you know you're getting a world class all-around utility knife and this is no exception. With more functions than MacGyver could figure out it's a practical and not overwrought multi-function tool for use at home or in the field. At Amazon's price, a steal!
 Great for the Price November 25, 2008
B. Van (Green Bay, WI USA)
I had one of these knives for years and then lost it (I think it was stolen). The knife has a ton of useful tools and is very well made. The only thing I miss from the first one I had was it came with a case, this one does not. But considering that I paid 3X the price I did for the new one I can live with out a case.
If you are going to buy a knife, Victorinox is the way to go!!!!!
It's got everrrything November 25, 2008
Cary P. (SLC, UT)
I bought this knife to be a supplement to my CERT bag in case of emergencies. It has more than I expected and is a great knife. With a file that can also cut metal and bolts and a REALLY sharp saw it is very practical in an emergency. I have it sitting where I can get to it easily now, because it is such a great knife. I probably won't put it in my pocket very often, but I wasn't planning on that anyway.
Gadget overload November 25, 2008
C.Stroz (Louisville, KY USA)
I bought this knife, thinking it was a replacement for a SMALL keychain Swiss Army knife I had that was getting "yukky" and old, so I was surprised that I had ordered a pocket-size knife when it arrived- my fault. Forgetting the size mistake, there are really too many gadgets in this one- despite the fact that I love gadgets. They are too hard to pull out individually and you have to pull others out sometimes to get to the one you want. I didn't know it was so hunting/fishing oriented either. I don't know when I'll ever need to use the fish scaler!! My 14 yr old son is drooling for the knife, so I may just give it to him for Christmas and hunt down the small one I wanted in the first place. Great bargain though at $19.
